Ram Gopal Yadav (8 years ago)

India did not import any chana in February from Australia as compared to 675 tn in January and 20,999 tn in December after the former levied a customs duty. India is traditionally, Australia’s biggest chana importer. India had imposed a 60% customs duty on chana in March to curb cheaper imports and support prices. Overall, exports of chana from Australia in February were at 50,832 tn as compared to 58,190 tn in January. However, exports from Australia to other destinations particularly Bangladesh have increased in the above months.
